Arrow Speed
Can anyone tell me what speed your bows are shooting?
Thanks. |
RE: Arrow Speed
Well when my recurve was still In top form I was hitting 220 fps pulling 73lbs at 28". My arrows weigh 561 grains. That same recurve Is now only getting 61lbs at 28".[>:] I know my arrow speed Is way slower then It was but haven't been able to check It yet. I'm thinking It's in the 170 fps range now.

RE: Arrow Speed
My longbows shoot 170s with 10grains per pound of pull. I have a zipper recurve that shoots 180s with 10gr per pound of pull. My selfbow shoots only 155fps with a 460gr arrow at 53#. It has alot of string follow. From natural shape of the stave, not from tillering.

My Bob Lee gets 175 FPS. The bow is 67#'s at 29" and shoots a 680 grain arrow.

RE: Arrow Speed
What was used in making your limbs, what made up the "stack" and rough guess on number of times fired?

This year alone I've averaged at least 350 arrows a week since June 15th up till now (18 weeks total). So far this year I'd say about 6,300 arrows shot out of It. I shot allot more this year then usual because I couldn't figure out what the heck I was doing wrong. I later found out It was the loss In draw weight so I had to learn how to shoot this bow all over again. It was like starting all over again. I'm doing much better now. The other years I'd say I shot right around 2500 arrows a year- 13 years at 2500 arrows= 32,500 arrows shot + the 6,300 this year comes out to 38,800 total on arrows shot out of my recurve. Wow!!!! I never would of guessed that I've shot that many arrows out of this bow. Kinda neat to know!!:D |
